Plant Walk in Downtown Lancaster: Sunday, August 26th 2012.

I will be leading a plant walk around some of the sidewalks of downtown Lancaster PA.
While our city sidewalks are not necessarily a healthy place to eat edible wild plants, they are a fun and convenient place to learn about them and their resilient nature. I will be largely focusing on edible weeds as well as some useful street trees.

When: 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm on Sunday, August 26th.

Where: Musser Park, Lancaster, PA
Meet under the large Oak tree near the steps on the corner of E Chestnut and N Shippen.

Suggested donation of $10, but pay what you can if you can.
